....

There is so much evil/hate/despair/discrimination going on in the world right now it leaves me at a loss for words, and almost at a loss for hope that it will end any time soon.
The situation in Iran that CNN seems so eager to analyze is horrible- but it is still nothing compared to what is continuing in Darfur... And we hear nothing of that on the news at all.
I wonder if the violence in Darfur/Iran/Iraq/North Korea ever keeps any of my friends, family, acquaintances lying awake at night.

And I wonder where one should begin,
when there is so much work to be done-
and so many lives depend on it getting done- not now, but yesterday.

WORLDWIDE CHAIN FAST

Tuesday I will do my part, fasting for 48 hours, only consuming water and refugee-rations. For more information on the Darfur Fast for Life visit this website: http://fastdarfur.org
Give whatever you can, because it is time to end the genocide NOW.
We must fast in solidarity with the people of Darfur because they do not have a choice or a voice. We MUST fast and speak out, creating change & spreading awareness and truth, to end the suffering of so many innocent people.
